Cassy assured the nurse’s aide in the kitchen. “I’ll wait in the living room until the others leave. She has enough company right now.”“Yes, she does,” the nurse’s aide agreed. She smiled broadly. “It is a very cute little baby. Mrs. Goldblum’s eyes lit up when she saw him.”“He’s only a couple of weeks old.”The nurse’s aide nodded and proceeded to set up some medications on a small tray.Cassy lingered a moment, wanting to ask but not wanting to ask. She already sensed it, but wanted confirmation. “She’s not very far away from it now, Virginia, is she?”The aide waited a moment before looking at her. In a low voice she said, “But Rosanne does not see it. She won’t allow herself to see it.”“She doesn’t want to let her go.”“That makes it hard for Mrs. Goldblum,” Virginia said solemnly. “Because she wants to go.”Cassy nodded. “Thank you for telling me.”Cassy went into the living room and sat down on the couch. She slid her glasses on and picked up the photo album Amanda and Rosanne had put together for Emma to look at.
